Eric Holder, who described himself as Barack Obama’s “wingman” when he was Attorney General, has been emboldened by the strong showing by Democrats in this week’s election.

He told the liberal news outlet Meidas Touch it’s time for progressives to implement “substantive reforms” of the Supreme Court, calling it “a broken institution” that was causing “an untold amount of damage to the fabric” of the country.

Holder is pleased that many lower courts are blocking President Trump’s initiatives and says, “It’s only when you get to the Supreme Court that you see these problems start to arise.” What “problems” is he talking about?

If the 2028 elections lead to the Left recapturing the White House, he says “expanding the court is something I think that should be considered.”

We agree with Holder on one point: there should be a national conversation about whether to expand the size of the Court. And a mandatory retirement age for Supreme Court justices would make sense.

But the Court was meant to be the “bulwark of our freedoms” and it doesn’t sound like Holder wants more, but less freedom in America.
